Donald Trump’s presidency so far has featured a plethora of executive orders and political decisions, some of which controversial. Most recently, his administration came under fire because of the high tariffs he imposed on nearly every country in the world.

Experts argue that this decision will affect U.S. economy and trigger inflation, but Trump believes it would in fact strengthen the economy. He even asked from the public to trust his judgement, promising to make America great again.

Kamala Harris was among those who predicted the situation the country is currently in. She claimed during the presidential campaign that in case Trump gets elected, his plans “would weaken our economy, would inflate inflation, and would bring a recession on by the middle of next year.”

Besides the controversies surrounding Trump’s political decisions, it is the work of his friend Elon Musk that causes a stir.

Even since Trump appointed him the head of the Department of Government Efficiency, a special program aimed at reducing government spending and bureaucracy, Musk has triggered the backlash of a number of experts.

According to Economic Times, Musk claimed in February that DOGE have reduced federal spending by $65 billion through “a combination of asset sales, contract cancellations, fraud deletion, interest savings, and workforce reductions.”

Following these claims, nearly $1 billion-worth of savings from DOGE’s advertized sum suddenly ‘vanished’ when they updated their website recently, NOTUS reports.

According to the investigative platform, “DOGE removed around $962 million in previously claimed cuts and altered hundreds of others to boost individual items’ purported ‘savings’ values.”

While DOGE pledged to be transparent regarding their savings, their website remained without any updates from the end of March to April 14, when they wrote the “agency” has saved $155 billion.

While many judged the work of Musk and DOGE, the White House defended him, with the press secretary Karoline Leavitt sating that “rogue bureaucrats and activist judges attempting to undermine this effort are only subverting the will of the American people.”

Former President Joe Biden made a rare public appearance this week to address Social Security and the White House secretary, Karoline Leavitt, was asked for a comment regarding Biden’s speech.

However, her answer sparked outrage with many dubbing her comment “rude” and “disgusting.”

“My first reaction when seeing former President Biden was speaking tonight was, I’m shocked that he is speaking at nighttime,” Leavitt said. “I thought his bedtime was much earlier than his speech tonight.”

Aiming at the former president’s age triggered backlash.

The press secretary, who is the youngest to have ever served the position, went on to discuss Trump’s stance on Social Security and speaking of his commitment to protecting it, it was her comment about Biden that has everyone talking.

“President Trump is absolutely certain about protecting Social Security benefits for law-abiding, tax-paying American citizens and seniors who have paid into this program,” she said.

“He will always protect this program. He campaigned on it,” she said and added: He protected it in his first term, and he’s back again to continue protecting it.”

As expected, Leavitt, who was a small-town girl before serving in the White House, faced intense criticism.

As a grand finale, Karoline Leavitt delivered one of the most SAVAGE mic drops of her career.

“No class at all. Shame on you. How old is your HUSBAND? You will be saying the same thing not far away,” one person commented, pointing out the 32-year-age gap between her and her real-estate mogul husband.

“Very rude. She’s talking about a former US President. He deserves at least respect!” another person wrote.

“Ok, so, although I do usually like her blunt nature, however, this was immature and disrespectful,” another added. “I did not care for President Biden, but he was still our President, and he is still a person.”

”Why do they always have to be so rude and condescending. Finger pointing name calling. You are there as the spokesperson. This isn’t an audition. Sick of this” someone else chimed in.

An Instagram user wrote, “She does a great job, but don’t think her comments are appropriate. Should be above that.”

Someone else added: “Karoline, you crossed the line!”

Two people were killed and at least six others were severely injured in the Thursday mass shooting on the grounds of Florida State University.

One of the victims has been identified as Robert Morales.

The FSU shooter, 20-year-old Phoenix Ikner, was identified as the stepson of Deputy Jessica Ikner of the Leon County Sheriff’s Office.

According to officials, he had access to one of his stepmother’s weapons – the one that was found at the scene on campus. Ikner was also injured during the shooting and has since been hospitalized.

Following the tragic incident, the shooter’s final post on the social media has been made public. He wrote, “you are my war club, my weapons for battle, with you I shatter nations, with you I destroy kingdoms,” a quote from the book of Jeremiah in the Bible warning of the coming day of judgment.

Before the attack, Ikner shared white supremacist views with some of his classmates.

Ikner “espoused so much white supremacist rhetoric, and far-right rhetoric as well, to the point where we had to exercise that rule,” classmate Reid Seybold revealed.

The FSU shooter had also made fun of college students who opposed the outcome of the 2024 presidential election.

“These people are usually pretty entertaining, usually not for good reasons,” he wrote in a school magazine.

“I think it’s a little too late, he’s [Trump] already going to be inaugurated on Jan. 20 and there’s not really much you can do unless you outright revolt, and I don’t think anyone wants that.”

According to the statement released by Leon County Sheriff McNeil, the FSU shooter was “steeped in the Leon County Sheriff’s Office family.” He was a part of the department’s youth setup and participated in training and other activities.

Dakota Bages who on campus at the time of the shooting recalled the moment the fire started. “We just kind of heard ruckus,” she told CNN. “We heard these kind of screams from what sounded like a man. And then we heard a woman scream – kind of like she had been toppled over.”

Still unaware of what was happening, they tried to hide themselves.

“Some are crying. Some are trying to keep their cool. Others are screaming: ‘Get in, get in! Push the table! Cover the door!’ They ended up lifting up these huge desks – that are meant to be computer desks – lifting them up and putting them against this glass wall,” Bages said.

All she could hear was screams from frightened classmates.

Representatives of the hospital where the victims have been admitted said all six of them are in a serious condition, with one being critical.

As a precaution, the Leon County School District put buildings near the campus on lockdown.
